Can you imagine not only losing your hair but also having to find a job at the same time? That's what happened to Betty Bailey, a 32-year-old office manager from Deerfield, Illinois who had never even heard the phrase hair replacement before. It was bad enough that Betty found out that year that she had Alopecia Areata and it was bad enough that she had to wake up each day looking at the missing patches of hair where her joy and confidence and beauty had once been. But things were about to get worse for her.

Her co-workers and her husband had all known her before she lost her hair and she only had a few patches missing so it wasn't a terrible ordeal in her daily life, except when she went to the store or mall and people always did stare. But then Betty's situation took a turn for the worse when she became an unemployment statistic and her boss gave her the pink slip. After six and a half years of working for him she would have to find a new job. The thought of all those interviews and strangers sent her sobbing home from work every single night until she realized she had to do something; and that something was nonsurgical ...
... hair replacement.

Luckily Betty's husband, Bill, was a really understanding guy who had been spending a little time researching her Alopecia condition and hair replacement options since it began occurring earlier that year. He felt terrible that she would be faced with strangers staring and asking about the bald patches, or even worse, employers thinking that if she couldn't handle her hair and her health how would she ever handle a new job? When he come upon nonsurgical hair replacement systems he learned all about the different types of hair systems that could be made specifically for women in Betty's situation - women suffering from Alopecia Areata resulting in bald patches on her head.

Though they aren't typically used as an Alopecia treatment, Bill learned all about hair extensions that could be applied to existing hair to cover the bald patches since they weren't more than two inches wide. He thought Betty might be a good candidate for this type of nonsurgical hair replacement since the rest of her hair that was not falling out seemed to be stable and was still thick and healthy, not frizzy and thinning as some other Alopecia Areata sufferers were. There was also a hair system called a Reprieve which used her existing hair mixed with 100% virgin human hair to cover the patches. After looking at all the wig websites he was sure that depending on how much money you spent that you could have a wig made to mimic your exact hair and style from before the hair loss occurred.

No more were the days of the thick, hot rubber caps and the thick fake hair. Now a hair replacement was a natural-looking wig made with a lace cap and virgin human hair that can be washed, styled, and cut any way - just like your own hair. Hair replacements of all types could be removable (at night) or not removable. He had to tell Betty. He had to help her overcome the hurdle of looking for a new job and not feeling self-conscious since her self-esteem and self-confidence had essentially deserted her since losing her hair.

After he talked to Betty and showed her all the options, they visited several hair replacement studios nearby. That's when she decided to spend her severance package on a beautiful new, custom-made hair system. This was no hair replacement toupee for a bald man at all. She chose a set of hair extensions, too, and even to changed her hairstyle and color a little bit, making it look a little longer, deeper in tone and thicker with a new angled cut that made her face the focus of her new look. The new people she'd be meeting now wouldn't know the difference. So she signed on with the hair replacement studio with the most experienced hair replacement experts in systems and extensions for Alopecia Areata that were sewn on piece-by-piece. The price she paid for the actual hair system used up her entire severance package but the smile and confidence she brought to the new job interviews, she knew, were priceless!
